Summary

Description
English: On 2 March 1820, the Ngāpuhi chiefs Hongi Hika and Hohaia Parata Waikato, his nephew, left the Bay of Islands on the whaler New Zealander to visit England in the company of the missionary Thomas Kendall. They went to Cambridge, where they stayed with Professor Samuel Lee to whom they gave valuable assistance in his preparation for the Church Missionary Society of the book A Grammar and Vocabulary of the Language of New Zealand. While in London the two chiefs were painted by John Jackson RA, a prolific portraitist. It is believed that this unsigned double portrait was a commission from the Church Missionary Society, owners of the work until 1993.
